Diseases of the nervous system in the Hundred Aere Wood

Canadian doctors think that the teddy bear Winnie-the-Pooh suffers from attention-deficit disorder and hyperactivity. They are also disturbed by the little animal's obsessive behaviour and psychological attachment to eating in general, and eating honey in particular. Such behaviour leads to obesity.

The authors wonder if the little bear is suffering from 'shaken cub' syndrome ( a type of brain injury), the result of an ab­normal method of transport. Christopher Robin usually holds the pet by one stuffed arm and lets the bear's head hit the stairs.

The authors diagnosis for the donkey Eeyore is depression caused by a shocking experience, in this case the amputation of his tail. They think that Rabbit suffers from narcissism to a pathological degree.

They notice that the kangaroo Kanga is a single parent who is unemployed and abnormally overprotective of her baby.

For each member of the group of animals the writers not only reveal the diagnosis, but also prescribe suitable treatment.
